Aim
The aim of this institution is to improve cooperation and coordination between research institutes, academic departments and industry that form the European biomedical imaging community in order to create a network of European biomedical imaging institutes, co-ordinate the development of biomedical imaging technologies within Europe and support the dissemination of knowledge with the ultimate goal of improving diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease.
It develops and organises research projects within the Sixth and the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union to create an environment in which medical doctors, physicists, chemists, mathematicians, molecular biologists, computer scientists, and other technologists and technicians can co-operate productively.

Famous quotes containing the word aim:
“In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness. Our aim must be to diminish the number of the latter and increase the number of the former. That is why we demand education and knowledge.”
—Victor Hugo (18021885)
“By measure. It was word and note,
The wind the wind had meant to be
A little through the lips and throat.
The aim was song the wind could see.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“... my aim is now, as it has been for the past ten years, to make myself a true woman, one worthy of the name, and one who will unshrinkingly follow the path which God marks out, one whose aim is to do all of the good she can in the world and not be one of the delicate little dolls or the silly fools who make up the bulk of American women, slaves to society and fashion.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (18421911)
